I use prewounds most of the time. I take the paper backings off for all my machines. The paper is just there to hold the bobbin thread and keep it clean. The bobbin case does this when the paper is off.

My plastic bobbins have what "looks like" 2 holes on each side, directly opposite each other, but only one of those four holes is actually a hole. Very frustrating when starting a bobbin to find the empty hole.
I don't think it has anything to do with balance, as the bobbin does not spin fast. It only goes around as fast as the thread is used on it. Nothing needs to "balance".
